Green Mountain College Launches New Major in Eco-Design

18.05.12

/PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Over the past three years, Green Mountain College students and faculty have explored the potential of renewable energy systems and ecological design principles through the College's Renewable Energy and Ecological Design (REED) certificate program.

Beginning in the fall of 2012, undergraduates at GMC will be able to pursue a full-fledged 42-credit REED major. The new program offers depth of study in renewable energy and ecological design, while allowing students to specialize in an area of interest by selecting from courses across the curriculum, including art, business, and sustainable agriculture. The College's board of trustees voted last month to approve the major, which is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. 

"Under the leadership of Lucas Brown (assistant professor of environmental studies) and Dr. Steven Letendre (associate professor of economics and environmental studies), students are building knowledge and skills through in-class lectures, design studio work, hands-on courses, and internships," said GMC Provost Dr. William Throop.
